??Chapter 256 Busy Years
??Xu Shiyan's family stayed here until 7:30, and Xu Haiyuan and Xu Jinping's brother and sister were both sleepy, so Xu Chenghou let them go.
??Before leaving the house, Xu Chenghou whispered to his son and daughter-in-law not to hit the children.
??Children, it’s normal to be greedy. The two children also suffered today.
?? Made Xu Shiyan speechless, led the children home, and scolded the two children with a straight face.
??The girl is timid, and she shed tears after being scolded by her father. Xu Haiyuan is probably also afraid, so she stood there obediently and did not dare to speak up.
??After Xu Shiyan trained the children, he asked the two children to relieve themselves quickly, lest they really pee on the bed at night.
?? After the two babies came back after peeing, they took off their clothes and got into the bed, and fell asleep after a while.
??At eleven o'clock, Su Anying even specially asked the two children to get up and pee, but both said they didn't pee.
?? It turned out that just after twelve o'clock, Xu Haiyuan crawled out of his bed and stabbed Xu Shiyan. "Dad, I peed on the kang."
??As soon as Xu Shiyan heard this, he quickly turned on the light, and then saw that his son's quilt was all wet. It's a big splash of urine.
?? Before Xu Shiyan could say anything, the girl over there also got up, "Dad, I want to pee."
??Xu Shiyan didn't say a word, picked up his daughter and ran to the outside room. The son's bed can only be handed over to his daughter-in-law.
??When Xu Shiyan came back with his daughter in his arms, Su Anying had already pulled out the quilt that her son had peed on and threw it aside, and put another quilt on it.
?? "I wonder if you two will dare to eat so much canned food in the future? There are not many things to eat.
??Xu Haiyuan, you are only six years old, and you still pee on the kang, is it embarrassing? "
?? While cleaning up her son, Su Anying deliberately buried her son.
??Xu Haiyuan is a very shameless child. When his mother said so, his little face couldn't hold back anymore, and he was about to cry with his mouth puckered.
?? "Do you dare to cry tonight? Believe it or not?"
??Su Anying stared, frightened Xu Haiyuan to hold back tears.
?? "Okay, okay, don't make them cry in the middle of the night.
??The key is that there are still two younger ones. If you wake them up, you won't have to sleep tonight. "
??Xu Shiyan had no choice but to be a peacemaker, holding his daughter and son in his arms, coaxing them to sleep.
?? "Dad, I won't eat so much again." Xu Haiyuan murmured while lying in his father's arms with his eyes closed.
??This child has a very strong self-esteem. He can really remember such a shameful thing for many years when he wets the bed at such an age and is scolded by his mother.
?? "Well, well, go to sleep, go to sleep, there are still things at home to be busy tomorrow, you have to help Dad with work."
??Xu Shiyan patted his son on the back, coaxing him to sleep.
??After the new year, every household started to get busy.
??Sweeping the house on the 24th, Xu Shiyan took his son, tied the new broom to a stick, and lifted it up to sweep the dust on the wall.
??Xu Haiyuan is so young, his arms are sore when he lifts it up for a while.
??But this baby is stubborn, his arms are sore and he doesn't stop, he grits his teeth and continues, until he is so tired that he can't even lift his arms.
?? Twenty-five pasted windows.
??The windows of Xu's house are double-layered. At the beginning of winter, Su Anying cut strips of newspaper and pasted the window seams. At this time, there is no need to paste it again.
??So today, I made tofu at home.
??Su Anying soaked some soybeans in advance, and asked Xu Shiyan to go to the mill to push the water mill early in the morning on the 25th day.
??When Xu Shiyan came back from pushing the mill, the old couple and Xu Shiqin also came over. They quickly poured the bean foam into the pot and brought it to a boil.
??Xu Chenghou is the best at making tofu. Don't look at him before, he knows a lot of crafts.
??The boiled bean foam is wrapped, and the soy milk is filtered out to save some tofu. The bean dregs can be fed to pigs.
??Xu Chenghou scooped out a spoonful of soy milk, and asked Su Anying to find something to pack, put some sugar, and give it to Xu Haiyuan and his sister.
??This time, the two brothers and sisters learned their lesson, no matter how good the drink was, they didn’t drink too much. Each of them drank a small bowl, and Xu Shiqin picked up the bottom.
?? Scoop out some more, put some plaster on it and let it stand, and it will become tofu brain.
?? Cook a marinade for a while, then get some pickles, pancakes, etc., and breakfast will be ready.
??The tofu here is made with brine.
?? It is said that tofu is ordered in brine, and one thing is one thing. Sure enough, as soon as the brine was stirred in, the soy milk turned into flocs.
??In a wooden square plate with eyes that can leak water, a coarse cloth is laid, and then the flocs that have been bitten with brine are scooped in.
??Fill it and cover it with a cloth, then cover it with a wooden plank, and put a stone on it.
??Wait until the moisture inside is almost controlled, the tofu is formed, and then just pull it out.
??Over there, Su Anying baked green onion pancakes in another pan, and used a horse ladle to marinate them on the stove.
??Put the ordered tofu nao into a bowl, put some chopped green onion, pickles and so on.
?? Scoop a spoonful of marinade, and serve the burnt scallion pancakes. This morning meal is not to mention how delicious it is.
??After breakfast, it happened that the tofu was almost ready, so Xu Chenghou and Xu Shiyan worked together to put the tofu on another square plate.
??Bai Shengsheng's trembling tofu looks particularly appetizing.
??Xu Chenghou took a knife and divided the tofu into large pieces.
?? "Let's keep half of it for ourselves. You can send some to the Han family, and then give some to the master of the sixth child. It's the Chinese New Year, that's what it means."
?? Make tofu during the Chinese New Year, and relatives and friends will get some points at home.
??Donggang is a rural area, and many people would make a pack of tofu for Chinese New Year.
??Sanchang and Songjianghe are no good. They are both workers. They don’t farm their own land, so they can’t make tofu without beans.
??That's why Xu Chenghou said, send some from house to house.
??I keep these at home, some of them are pulled out with cold water, put in a cool place, and can be eaten slowly for a few days.
??The other part, simply cut into small pieces, and put it outside to freeze into lumps of frozen tofu.
??After the tofu is frozen, it is full of small eyes, and the stewed Chinese cabbage is left. The frozen tofu absorbs the taste of the soup and is extra delicious.
??Xu Shiyan put a few pieces of tofu in a basin, first gave it to the Han family, and then gave some to Master Qin and Guo Shouye.
??Master Qin was very happy to see Xu Shiyan, and told Xu Shiyan to let Xu Shiqin go for a while.
??The money for the medical subsidy came down, and Xu Shiqin had to come over and sign to receive it.
??Xu Shiyan thanked Master Qin before riding home.
?? Twenty-five to make tofu, twenty-six to kill pigs.
??This year, Xu Shiyan didn't raise pigs. Su Anying lived on the mountain for half a year, and then came back to have a baby. How can she have the time to raise pigs?
?? Zhou Guilan, on the other hand, caught two piglets at the beginning of spring, which was pretty good.
??After raising it for a year, it weighs less than 200 catties. It happened to kill one for the New Year, and save the other for spring.
??When everyone comes to help butcher pigs at home, it must be a treat, and authentic pig-killing dishes must be available.
?? The people who helped these people ate deliciously, but in the end they drank all of them staggeringly.
?? On the twenty-seventh day, Xu Shiyan caught two sheep from the farm and came back to kill them.
??The ewes in the breeding farm keep the milk they produce to make milk tofu to feed the sables, and the rams can only eat meat when they grow up.
??Now that life is better, two sheep are killed during the Chinese New Year and eaten in different ways.
?? When it was twenty-eight, steamed buns began.
??Zhou Guilan showed off her unique skills, steaming several pots of various jujube steamed buns.
?? He stared straight at Xu Haiyuan and Xu Jinping, brothers and sisters. He had never seen so many jujube steamed buns before, they were so beautiful.
